Humidity: It is a measure of moisture present in the air.

The amount of moisture present in the air when expressed as mass per unit volume is known as absolute humidity.

> Humidity is measured by the psychrometer.

> Transpiration: It is the process by which water leaves the body of a living plant and reaches the atmosphere as water vapour.

> Transpiration is measured by phytometer.

> Evaporation: It is the process in which a liquid changes to the gaseous state at the free surface below the boiling point through the transfer of heat energy.

> Evaporimeter measures evaporation.

> Evapotranspiration is measured by lysimeter.
